JJ Heller is a contemporary Christian musician who is known mostly for her two hit singles "Your Hands" and "What love really means" which was recently awarded the Top Female Christian Song of 2010 by Billboard Magazine. HistoryHeller started her career in the spring of 2003, when she decided to make a living as a full-time musician. Since that time, JJ has developed a faithful fan-base, performed an average of 80 dates a year, and added three full-length records and a Christmas EP to her discography. In the fall of 2009, Heller got her first big break when Diana Drexler, a contestant on the the FOX TV show, “So You Think You Can Dance?" chose JJ's song "Your Hands" for her audition. Heller soon found herself in the public eye, with a music career moving forward at a rate she never expected. One of the nearly 7 million viewers to witness Drexler’s performance was Jon Hull, station manager of Houston-based FM station KSBJ. Hull later decided to play "Your Hands" on the air for the KSBJ audience, and after the song rang out over the airwaves, the station was inundated with phone calls and e-mail from listeners describing how much "Your Hands" resonated with them. Just two days after Heller’s song was played on the air for the first time, the KSBJ staff decided to do something they hadn’t done in nearly four years — add an independent artist’s song to the station’s regular rotation. Before long, JJ's music was spinning in the rotation of nearly 60 reporting Christian adult contemporary FM stations, including K-LOVE the largest Christian radio network in the US. In the span of a few short months, JJ’s music was no longer reaching several thousand, but several million listeners. "Your Hands" made itself at home on Billboard Magazine’s Christian Songs chart for 24 weeks, and peaked at #13. For six weeks JJ’s album, Painted Red, landed a spot on Billboard Magazine’s Folk Albums chart and peaked at #12. In the following months, JJ saw her music placed on the ABC family show “Make It Or Break It,” and CW’s “One Tree Hill.” On 11/28/10, Heller's "What Love Really Means" was awarded the Top Female Christian Song of 2010 by Billboard Magazine.
